Donald is worried

Jaipur: Pune Warriors chief coach Allan Donald feels that the volume of cricket being played nowadays is “absolutely outrageous” which, in turn, reduces the time span of a cricketer.

“Look at the volume of cricket that is being played these days. It’s absolutely outrageous.

“We simply know from the South African point of view that we can’t afford to play Dale Steyn and Morne Morkel in all three formats of the game. I think we have seen youngsters who are flying through the ranks,” Donald said.

“What it does is it fast-tracks a lot of good, young bowlers or batsmen very quickly into the game.

“You need to adapt very quickly. At the moment, we have Chris Morris. He is doing exceptionally well for Chennai Super Kings.”
